I was looking for a great GPU with at least 1GB of dedicated video RAM on a limited budget. This one is it! I purchased this card new to upgrade from fair quality integrated VGA output graphics in a Dell Dimension 521 that could use a serious graphics boost with only a stock 300w power supply. I needed a specific series of upgrade that would not void a warranty and be supported by Dell recommended upgrade research with Part# 900275. There were other fancier GPUs that would require additional upgrades (ie. power supply) but this card did not and NO extra PCIe power connections required either (only requires a minimum 250w-270w standard power supply). Out of the box this VisionTek RADEON HD4650 series PCIe 2.0 (x16) card is ready for action. Comes pre-set and configured for a low profile or slimline case. It has all hardware necessary to install and adapt to all systems/cases. After a quick change to the included full-sized mounting plate, and quicker install, I was up and running on one of the two DVI outputs via the included splitter/adapter. Windows 7 Ultimate took the hardware update, located & installed the correct drivers and interfaces without error. Pretty sweet and seamless operations. The included overclocking Catalyst Control Center (CCC) allows automatic and manual overclocking of the onboard RAM, GPU & cooling fan via the AMD Overdrive(TM) conbtrol features under the PERFORMANCE section. A very useful and easy to use feature . Very user friendly! My system's registered Windows Experience Index rating went from a dismal 3.3/3.5 to a screaming 5.3/6.4 (Graphics/Gaming Graphics). The company web site support is straight forward and easy to access as well. Manual or automatic updates have all been flawlessly installed. Do the basic setups, set it and forget it. ENJOY!Read full review
The Price was the first thing I like about this item, 2nd was it is a great graphic that can be used in lower profile computer like my DELL OPTIPLEX 755/SFF which cannot use most graghic cards like this one.3rd works great with my 32" Vizio TV monitor,love the picture.
I was very pleased with how well this card worked with my Dell Inspiron 530! I was worried that it would require more wattage than the stock power supply could provide, but it really sips the voltage! Quite an excellent low power upgrade. Lotsa bang for the buck! This card offers awesome performance for the price. Unreal. I am recommending this card to a friend of mine who is in the market for a similar product.
